About this Opportunity

Calling all drivers! PATH is looking for a volunteer to pick up food rescue donations each week from Sprouts (1260 Garnet Ave.) on Wednesdays between 10am-12pm and drop them off at PATH Connections Housing (1250 Sixth Ave.) in downtown San Diego. It's a quick drive with a BIG impact!

These food donations help cut down food waste and support PATH's residents at our interim housing facility. You can also use your own vehicle if you prefer!
